Again, we never said that, you are saying that (Really, who would ever say that they don’t want Emory to continue to grow and improve itself? Perhaps you?). Please don’t speak for us. It’s not like you are making suggestions. You are merely putting imaginary words into the mouths of those who have not spoken about these issues to any of us and complaining.You can speak such a lie as many times as you like. .

There is shame in nothing. The place, like other institutions, has growing to do. Even Atlanta and Georgia has improvements to make (for example, biomedical/biotech options in Ga are not as good as they should be). You make it sound like Atlanta is some perfect city (I mean, it couldn’t remotely pass that public transportation initiative). It is not, but it has already served Emory and Georgia Tech well in terms of giving them the propulsion to their current stature. It is now up to them to take the next step if they want to be any better (you can’t just use Atlanta. There are internal initiatives and programs to be develop that really have nothing to do with Atlanta). Currently, Atlanta as a resource has been leveraged quite well (do you think that Emory would be in this position if it had remained at Oxford?). Again, you seem confused in understanding the complexity of these issues and you only care about rankings and not actual quality so your opinion kind of matters less. I have real suggestions for improvements based upon my experiences and all you have is complaints about prestige and rankings. Good luck to you. In the meantime, avoid placing words into mouths that are currently not here to speak for themselves (such as all of the alumni and students not represented on this board). We’ll claim that you were right once all of those people develop a forum or press conference of some sort and explicitly express that they are not interested in seeing the increased health, growth, stature, and well-being of the institution. I’m sure no such day will come.
